Theme Options links broken, “Forced Dev Mode Off Enabled”

The Theme Options panel is broken. The links don’t work in the left sidebar, and an extra row of the same links appears in the main content area, under a red message: “FORCED DEV MODE OFF ENABLED.” If you click the “Expand” link twice, the other links begin working (kind of), but the css styling is missing throughout and it’s not working right.

Here is a screenshot of the Theme Options: *Login to see link
Here is the live (test) site: *Login to see link

Everything was working perfectly on my local server and a test site on the remote server. Then I updated the theme and plugins locally (tested locally and all was fine), then migrated the whole site from the local to remote host, and this happened — but only on the remote server. It is all still fine on my local server (MAMP).

The css file is there (pinnacle_premium/themeoptions/options_assets/css/style.css) in both the local and remote sites, but it is only being used in the local site.

I first pushed the site live to the client’s host, FatCow, and got this problem.
Then I pushed the same install to a test site on a different host, Bluehost, and got the same problem.
I even tried re-installing in the same way to a different directory on my local host, to see if it was my migration method (BackupBuddy) — but that’s not the problem, because the second local install works fine. (Besides, I did this all before with earlier versions of the site, several times, and it always worked fine, on the local and remote servers.)

I’ve tried clearing the browser cache, using different browsers, and disabling all the plugins, as suggested elsewhere in this forum. Nothing works.

I’ve set up a temporary Admin account for you, on the test site, hoping you can figure out how to fix it so I can go fix it on the client’s site. Just let me know how to get you those credentials privately.

Thank you.
